21/02/1953 4F renumbering No. 44436 was the last of the Class 4F to be renumbered, the first two were 44253 an 44325 in March 1948, so that it has taken almost five years to complete the series 43835-44606. It is believed that one of the 2-8-0 (M8602) still has to be dealt with to complete that class. SLS/195304
